$A$ charged particle moving in a magnetic field $B$ has velocity components both along $B$ and perpendicular to $B$. The path of the charged particle will be:

  • A
    helical path with the axis perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field $B$
  • B
    straight along the direction of magnetic field $B$
  • C
    helical path with the axis along magnetic field $B$
  • D
    circular path

$A$ proton moving with a velocity of $8 \times 10^5 \ m/s$ enters a uniform magnetic field normal to the direction of the magnetic field. If the radius of the circular path of the proton in the magnetic field is $8.3 \ cm$, then the magnitude of the magnetic field is (Charge of proton $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$ and mass of the proton $= 1.66 \times 10^{-27} \ kg$) (in $mT$)

$A$ charged particle moves through a magnetic field perpendicular to its direction. Then

The radius of curvature of the path of a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field is directly proportional to

Electrons moving with different speeds enter a uniform magnetic field in a direction perpendicular to the field. They will move along circular paths.

$A$ particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ moves with a constant velocity $v$ along the positive $x$ direction. It enters a region containing a uniform magnetic field $B$ directed along the negative $z$ direction,extending from $x = a$ to $x = b$. The minimum value of $v$ required so that the particle can just enter the region $x > b$ is
